Congratulations at repeating exactly what I said. I said DQX would sell millions did I not? I said that not much effort was put into Swords did I not? But I suppose you can dwell in the ignorance that clearly anyone who speaks ill of the almighty wii is merely a "hater".
My point was he was downplaying the signifgance of Dragon Quest while calling Metal Gear Solid a "big franchise". Dragon Quest is in a completely different league in Japan. It would be like comparing a Grand Theft Auto spinoff to Tekken in others.

I called Dragon Quest Swords borderline shovelware - perhaps it's a little more than that, with Dragon Quest slapped onto its name. It doesn't change the fact that Metal Gear Solid is still a big franchise there (it is everywhere).
Also, just because it's DQ doesn't mean all that much for sales. These are the spinoffs VGC has data for:
Notice how there are Playstation titles are at the bottom? Suddenly, DQS doesn't look as bad...
My point was the comparisons weren't fair. If Monster Hunter 3 flops, then we have an arguement.
